The tens of thousands of people transferred from Bell Orchid Island to the Valley of Genesis held their breath, not daring to breathe heavily.
The timid ones huddled in the corners of the village, trembling, while the bolder ones merely swallowed their saliva, looking at the two opposing groups facing each other.
“Infernape!”
“Kirinriki!”

Two Elite Four-level Pokémon jumped out of their Poké Balls, released by Flint and Aaron, who had just recovered from their ice-sculpted state.
To be honest, they weren't quite sure what was going on.
But seeing their colleagues, Bertha and Aaron, confronting others,
and the conspicuous “R” logo on Satch, Chakra, and Oak's uniforms,
the two knew what to do without asking.
Just as the two sides were about to clash, Satch suddenly said, “Forget it.”
“Huh?”
Chakra opened his mouth wide in an exaggerated expression.
Satch signaled Darkrai to return, and said calmly, “The King’s order is for us to transfer these people from Bell Orchid Island, not to take this little thing away.”
Chakra had a “Are you kidding me?” expression, “Are you serious?”
Letting go of such a treasure just like that.
“The most important thing now is to assist the King.”
Saying that, Satch walked towards the golden ring, and as half of his body was swallowed by chaos, Satch suddenly turned around,
and said with a strange smile:
“Of course, Chakra, if you think you can handle it alone, I have no objections. Oak, are you going with him?”
Oak walked towards another golden ring without hesitation, “I naturally obey the orders of the King and the leader.”
Seeing the two leaving one after another, Chakra spat on the ground, leaving the sentence “Just you wait,”
before entering the last golden ring.
It was unclear whether he was saying this to Satch and Oak, or to the group of Alliance elites present.
“Merrick!”
The Hoopa Unbound, who had narrowly escaped death, threw himself into Merrick’s arms.
“I was so scared, Hoopa, are you okay?”
Merrick hugged Hoopa Unbound, still in shock.
“Yeah, it’s just that the gate was open for too long, Hoopa is tired~”
Hoopa Unbound rubbed his eyes, then rubbed his stomach, “Hoopa is also hungry.”
Merrick breathed a sigh of relief, then forced a smile, “I’ll take you to eat donuts later, you can eat as many as you want.”
“Merrick, Hoopa, are you okay?”
Bazaar hurried over and asked.
“Why are you only here now!?”
Merrick scolded unhappily.
But in reality, Merrick knew in her heart that even if her brother was here, he wouldn't be able to do anything.
Although both siblings inherited the power from Arceus, just like their great-grandfather,
their power was like a joke compared to their great-grandfather's power, which could seal a Legendary Pokémon.
Merrick was just simply venting the resentment in her heart.
“Excuse me, who exactly is this child?”
At this moment, Bertha couldn't help but step forward.
Aaron, and countless others around, looked curiously at the little guy in Merrick’s arms.
Was she the one who used her ability to send them from Sinnoh to this place?
To be able to take so many people away at once…
For a time, the eyes of hundreds of thousands of people looking at Hoopa were filled with curiosity, gratitude, but also greed and desire.
“Can we, the Kalos League, protect that Hoopa?”
At this moment, Malva finally spoke.
As soon as these words came out, everyone turned their attention to the Fire-type Elite Four of the Kalos League.
Flint, who also used Fire-type Pokémon, had learned the simple details of the incident from Aaron, and nodded in agreement upon hearing Malva’s words:
“That’s right, the dangerous Team Rocket guys already know about this little guy's existence. It’s better to let the League help protect her than to have her stay here.”
Speaking of which, something similar had happened in the Sinnoh League as well.
Didn't they also transfer Sheena and the Life Orb to Bell Orchid Island after learning about its existence?
“Bazaar, what do you think?”
Seeing Merrick hesitate, Malva immediately turned her attention to Bazaar.
“This, this, sure, it does make sense———”
Bazaar stuttered a bit when Malva looked over.
Merrick rolled her eyes inwardly.
Besides being dissatisfied with the changes in her homeland and her brother, the village chief, not being present,
another important reason for her anger was that she couldn't stand Bazaar's simping.
After receiving Bazaar’s “support,” Malva turned her gaze back to Merrick, “Little sister Merrick, what do you think?”
Who's your sister?!
Merrick said inwardly, then coldly replied two seconds later:
“Elite Four Malva, you don’t seem to have the ability to protect Hoopa, do you?”
As soon as these words came out, at least tens of thousands of people on the scene gasped.
Was she really not giving any face?
Above the frozen Bell Orchid Island sea.
“Careful!”
Naki, who was sitting by the window seat, suddenly shouted.
Looking out through the window, Bell Orchid Island, diagonally below, was trembling slightly, and black and white mixed energy ripples surged around.
Crushing the ice on the sea, but immediately the ice breath swept over, forming new ice layers.
And one of the impacts was heading towards the plane.
Boom!
A burst sounded.
In Naki's pupils, the plane was intentionally affected, and a soaring fire ignited.
It's going to crash!
Seeing this, Drake pulled open the hatch without saying a word, and shouted against the turbulence, “There’s no other way, summon your Flying-type Pokémon, let’s go!”
After speaking, Drake took the lead and jumped down.
Throwing out a Poké Ball to release his Salamence.
Lance also summoned Dragonite, and Steven sent out Metagross to follow closely behind.
“It can actually affect this far———”
Naki simply couldn't believe it.
They were still several miles away from the island!
Battlefield center.
Dialga kneeled on one knee.
Although he didn't directly take Lorelei's Double Blizzard just now because of Joker's intervention,
he was still completely hit by Delibird's Blizzard.
The ice continuously eroded his physical strength, and his condition wasn't good.
“Shadow Lugia, Whirlwind! Espeon, Sacred Fire!”
The Espeon sent out by Joker instantly turned into Entei upon appearing with a white light, spewing golden flames.
It was the same fire as the Three Legendary Beasts' master, Ho-Oh.
Shadow Lugia followed closely behind, strengthening the flame's power with Whirlwind.
This was the strongest fire move that Joker's lineup could currently use.
The Piloswine's “Ice Susanoo” suddenly stretched out two more arms, turning into a four-armed form like Machamp.
But it didn't end there!
The elbows of the two arms quickly raised huge shields and merged together, isolating the whirlwind flames outside.
“Su Sheng, wanting my life won't be that easy!”
Lorelei sneered and shouted.
As soon as these words came out, Cynthia's face changed drastically.
Her guess——..· was correct!?
“Bastard!”
Hearing Lorelei actually say his real name, Rika couldn't help but curse.
Acerola also had a drop of cold sweat on his face, looked down, and said with a dry smile, “No, fortunately, there's only this one outsider now.”
“What about adding me?”
A sudden mocking voice sounded.
Cynthia, who hadn't recovered from the exposure of Joker's true identity, subconsciously turned her head to look.
She saw a man wearing a pure black cloak, with an upright collar and a low top hat completely covering his face, just walking past her.
Team Rocket Boss!?
Lorelei's face under the ice mask changed slightly, and he sneered, “Alright, show me what you've got.”
When he saw Su Sheng, Lorelei was already mentally prepared for Giovanni's arrival.
It was really stressful to fight these two at the same time, so he had to be careful.
The corners of Giovanni's lips under the hat brim and collar slightly curled up, “No need to worry, I've already used it.”
Lorelei was stunned when he heard this, but before he could think about it carefully, he suddenly heard a crisp “crack” from the ice shield.
The ice shield was melting?
No!
Even if it was really melting, it shouldn't make this sound!
At this moment, the whirlwind flames jointly created by Shadow Lugia and Espeon finally dissipated.
The power of the ice shield had been weakened by more than 70%.
Not breaking it meant not breaking it.
Piloswine was immediately ready to continue inputting ice power, but————·
The moment the flames dissipated, Lorelei's expression changed drastically.
Because in front of the ice shield, which was less than 20% thick, appeared a Pokémon he had never seen before!
A mysterious Pokémon with a completely black body, with lava-like golden-red barbs on its tail and shoulders, and an overall figure similar to a human but with many feline Pokémon characteristics.
And at this moment, his right hand was making a punching gesture.
There was no doubt that the crisp sound he had just heard was his masterpiece.
“Wave Surge.”
Giovanni said three words lightly.
Hearing this, Shadow Mewtwo spread his left palm, and surging azure light waves rapidly condensed into a large energy ball.
Giant Water Shuriken——..—. Oh no, Wave Surge!
Crack!
This time it wasn't just a faint sound, the clear cracking sound echoed throughout the battlefield.
And rapidly expanded within a breath, causing a chain reaction, the entire “Ice Susanoo” rapidly shattered.
Finally, with a “pop!” sound, even the ice layer in front of Lorelei, who was sitting in the “cockpit,” shattered as well.
“Now!”
Giovanni sneered, and his right hand, which had been in his pocket, swung out vigorously.
A light yellow shadow rushed out at high speed.
“Damn it!”
Lorelei cursed inwardly.
The Piloswine in his arms controlled the broken ice man, and grabbed towards the opponent with a huge arm.
However, the opponent was too agile, and avoided the grabbing hand with a “Z” shaped movement under high-speed movement.
Under the sunlight, the sharp stinger emitted a deadly cold light, directly locking onto Lorelei's throat.
“Ji!?”
Seeing this, the Delibird, who originally wanted to give Dialga a final blow, quickly turned back and flew back.
The speed exploded to the limit, and it crashed with a “Brave Bird”.
The light yellow shadow was attacked midway, and the stinger skewed, hitting Lorelei's abdomen.
“Neaaaaa—”
Lorelei let out a heart-wrenching scream.
And that light yellow shadow fell like a meteor.
Crashing “boom” on the waste land next to Giovanni, and a pit half a meter deep appeared.
Sure enough, it was Beedrill!
“Well done.”
Giovanni squatted down and used Viridian Forest energy to heal Beedrill.
“Did you kill him?”
Joker asked from the top of Shadow Lugia's head.
Giovanni, who was communicating with Beedrill through Viridian Forest energy, shook his head, “The last stab just now was skewed.”
“That's a bit troublesome, the same trick can't work on a master-level trainer twice.”
Joker frowned.
The corners of Giovanni's mouth under his collar curled up, “It's okay, he has already pierced his lungs, which means—————”
“Huff——Huff..——”
At this moment, Lorelei kept panting to relieve the pain, but as soon as he took two deep breaths, the severe pain from the wound forced him to stop.
The severe pain from the lungs made it so that he would pull the wound with every deep breath.
And since he couldn't even take a deep breath, let alone speak.
“Ne——....”
The Shadow Mewtwo in mid-air suddenly covered his chest and made a heavy painful groan, and fell from the sky in weightlessness.
Seeing this, Shadow Lugia immediately stretched out his wings to catch him.
Being a “Dark type” too, Shadow Mewtwo was considered half his——·son?
“You've worked hard, go back and rest.”
Giovanni said to Shadow Mewtwo.
Shadow Mewtwo nodded reluctantly, a fleeting blue light flashed in his eyes, and then he disappeared in place.
Teleport!
Giovanni explained, “Shadow Mewtwo's condition has not been adjusted to its best, and it forcibly attacked under your Shadow Lugia and Espeon's attack, so it can only last this long.”
The combined attack of Shadow Lugia and Espeon was actually just a feint.
It was just to weaken Lorelei's ice shield's defense.
And then wait until Lorelei's defense was the weakest.
Shadow Mewtwo then used his Teleport, moving from Kanto thousands of miles away into the flames, and dealt a fatal blow.
Joker and Giovanni had simulated this plan several times.
“Ha—Ha——Ha—
Lorelei was still panting, and Delibird quickly used ice to freeze the wound for its master to prevent further deterioration.
He could take a deep breath now, but it was still very difficult to speak.
“Very good, next, just aim at the trainer and hit him hard, Delibird and Piloswine can't exert their full power compared to each other.”
Giovanni was full of confidence and firmly believed that this battle could be won.
Although Delibird and Piloswine still had the power to fight.
But their master was injured, as long as they aimed at Lorelei, these two master-level Pokémon would definitely be distracted!
“You·——”
Cynthia was about to speak.
Suddenly, she felt her throat tighten, and her right hand was also grabbed from behind.
Cynthia's focus in her eyes shifted to the left, it was Rika!
“Sheng, this guy heard something he shouldn't have heard.”
Rika said to Joker, “What should we do? Or———”
“Stop!”
Just then, an angry shout came from afar.
Everyone turned their heads to look.
Lance, Steven, Wallace, Drake————·
Many League elites, mainly Hoenn League elite trainers, arrived one after another.
“Release Miss Cynthia!”
Nagi, the Flying-type Elite Four member, riding on an oversized Skarmory with Bonnie and Hana behind her, pointed at Lihua and shouted.
“What’s going on here—no, before that, we need to find a way to save Champion Cynthia first.”
Steven Stone muttered to himself, quickly analyzing the battle plan in his mind.
“You're here too? Perfect, let me use my new power to send you to your grave!”
For the first time, Lance didn't focus his attention on Joker, his eyes bloodshot as he glared at Giovanni.
This bastard was the culprit who harmed his Dragonite!
“Joker.”
Lihua looked at Joker again, and because there were outsiders present, she immediately changed her address again.
“...Let her go.”
After thinking for half a second, Joker spoke.
Lihua: “Huh?”
Itsuki: “This… is that okay?”
“Yeah, let her go.”
Joker nodded.
Although Lihua was unwilling, since Joker himself said so, she slowly released her grip, pushing Cynthia away the moment she let go.
“Miss Cynthia!”
Nagi caught Cynthia and helped her up, asking, “Are you alright?”
“Cough, cough~”
Cynthia coughed twice, looking at the man opposite her with extremely complex eyes, “I’m, I’m fine—”
Joker turned his back to the League reinforcements and looked at Pryce, “Now our first target is the Masked Man,
We must not let him leave this island alive.”
“That’s right.”
At this moment, a non-male, non-female eunuch voice sounded.
Satch walked over with a silly-looking Oak and an unhappy-looking Oak, and said with a smile, “Members of the League, would you like to join forces with us Team Rocket?
After all, he is an SSS-class wanted criminal, and he has caused such a big incident this time, you must also want to eliminate this guy, right?”
“This…”
Hearing this, Steven and the others hesitated.
To be honest, there was some truth to it.
“What are you talking about!?”
Before Steven and Wallace, the rationalists, could respond, Lance said angrily:
“The Masked Man is evil! Team Rocket is also evil!! Since they are all rats, they must be eliminated all at once!!!”
To be honest, if Giovanni wasn't here, Lance wouldn't have agreed to Satch's proposal, but he would most likely have chosen to watch.
But with Giovanni here, the situation was different.
It was like how Sasuke in the early stages was usually the calmest one in Team 7, but he would go crazy when he saw Itachi, it was the same principle.
“Take him down! Gyarados!”
Without waiting for his surrounding colleagues to respond, Lance immediately sent out the first main force in his current lineup, replacing his ace Dragonite.
The huge Gyarados roared and glared at the target, as if saying “I will avenge my brother”.
Giovanni sighed, “Brainless brat.”
“Is it okay, Old Man?”
Joker turned his back to Giovanni and asked, “You can’t use Mewtwo either.”
In fact, Dark Mewtwo's physical condition had not been adjusted to its best state, and this time it was a forced battle.
After all, the opponent was the only Master-level trainer of this era, and it was impossible not to take risks.
Fortunately, the plan was successful.
But Dark Mewtwo was no longer usable.
“It's too easy for me to deal with this kind of kid driven by anger, you can safely send that old fart to the afterlife.”
Giovanni said with a faint smile.
“You’re pretty bold.”
Lance curled his lips into a murderous smile, and lifted his sleeves.
What was revealed was a bracer with a Key Stone on it!
Giovanni's expression changed slightly.
In the next second, Lance had already pointed his left index finger at the Key Stone,
Instantly, Lance's Key Stone and Gyarados's body lit up with colorful rainbow light at the same time.
Just like Steven's Metagross and Diantha's Gardevoir at the Alola exhibition match before.
“It’s Gyarados—”
Joker thought to himself.
When playing the game 《Let's Go, Pikachu! and Let's Go, Eevee!》 in his previous life, Lance did indeed have Mega Evolution.
It's just that the MEGA object was Charizard X.
It must be said that Charizard X, which has the Dragon type, is more in line with Lance's aesthetics.
But in Lance's current situation, MEGA Gyarados is obviously more reasonable.
After all, Charizard is only a second-tier in Lance's team, while Gyarados is second only to the previous ace Dragonite.
Now, coupled with the power of MEGA, it is not impossible to be comparable to or even surpass the ace Dragonite.
